AI Card Cutter
FreePaste an article and a tag, Cardinal finds the strongest passage and highlights the exact words you read aloud.
K Cutter
★ ProPaste a theory source and pick a kritik, Cardinal cuts a full K shell: link, impact, alt, and role of the ballot, in real K style.
Card Search
FreeType a claim. Cardinal searches the web and opencaselist, then cuts ready-to-run cards from credible sources.
Flow
FreeFlow the round in a grid. The AI flags dropped arguments with an arrow and an ✕, or mark them yourself.
Attack a Card
FreePaste an opponent's card and Cardinal exposes its contradictions, power-tagging, shaky assumptions, and turns, plus cross-ex questions.
Word Count
★ ProUpload a doc and count only the highlighted words you actually read aloud, know your speech length.
Rhetoric Mode
FreeTurn any card into a smooth spoken sentence, the evidence stays word-for-word, only the delivery gets polished.
The Archive
★ ProPre-made kritiks, topicality, theory, framework, spark and wipeout, ready to browse, copy, and run.
PF Archive
★ ProPick a monthly PF resolution. Cardinal shows the contentions people ran and the blockfiles (premade rebuttals) to answer them, with the cut cards, sorted by category and side.
My Cases
★ ProOrganize cards into files and contentions, then export a whole case to a single Word doc.
Practice Rounds
★ ProRun live rounds with synced timers, prep clocks, chat, and an AI judge that hands back a rubric ballot.
Judge Prep
★ ProPaste a paradigm for a cheat-sheet, or look up a judge's Tabroom record, how often they vote Aff vs Neg across their history.
AI Coach
★ ProA conversational coach that pulls real cards from your library and Archive to build cited blocks.
Watch it work
Just scroll. It plays itself.
Search finds a card, the cutter highlights it, and Attack a Card tears it apart, all on its own as you scroll.
Nuclear war causes extinction, soot blocks the sun and collapses world agriculture
Robock & Toon 12 — Alan Robock (Prof. of Environmental Sciences, Rutgers) & Owen Brian Toon (Prof., Univ. of Colorado), Self-Assured Destruction, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists
A regional nuclear exchange would loft roughly five million tons of soot into the stratosphere. That soot spreads worldwide within weeks and stays aloft for over a decade, blocking sunlight and dropping temperatures to ice-age levels, and global food production collapses.

Nuclear war causes extinction, soot blocks the sun and collapses world agriculture
Robock & Toon 12 — Alan Robock (Prof. of Environmental Sciences, Rutgers) & Owen Brian Toon (Prof., Univ. of Colorado), Self-Assured Destruction, Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists
A regional nuclear exchange would loft five million tons of soot into the stratosphere. That soot spreads worldwide within weeks and stays aloft for over a decade, blocking sunlight and dropping temperatures to ice-age levels, growing seasons shorten, crop yields fail across every major region, and global food production collapses. The resulting famine puts the majority of humanity at risk of starvation and threatens the survival of the species.
Pasted opponent card
- Power-tagThe tag says extinction, but the card only says the famine could threaten the species, that is a maybe, not a guarantee.
- AssumptionAssumes a full regional exchange detonates over cities; a limited or counterforce strike lofts far less soot and breaks the chain.
- TurnNuclear winter cooling cuts both ways, opponents can argue it offsets warming impacts you read elsewhere, straight-turning your own scenario.
- Cross-exAsk: what soot tonnage does your author assume, and what happens to the impact if the real number is half that?
